Cats are naturally curious and not afraid of heights, but they cannot fly, and therefore cases of pets falling out of windows are nothing new.

In summer, pets face many dangers in their home, and the main one is an open window.

Instinct can play a cruel joke on a cat. The animal is not afraid of heights and remains a hunter, even if it lives in an apartment.

She can calmly doze on the windowsill of an open window, but if a bird or even a fly flies by, the cat may not think about the consequences.

In addition, the animal may be frightened by a sharp and loud sound, a strong gust of wind. And also because of a draft, the window may slam shut.

You shouldn't count on a mosquito net to protect your pet from falling.

There is another danger that can, if not kill, then injure your pet. These are windows left in ventilation mode.

There are frequent cases when a pet's head gets stuck between a slightly open window sash.

An animal has virtually no chance of escaping from such a trap on its own.

The cat will probably start to panic, which will only complicate her situation further.
